Greetings,

When I take a look at some of my MP3 files in itunes or Windows media player, I see that the file has attributes like genre, artist, etc. However OTR files ( such as Burns and Allan ) do not.

I have not been able to figure out how to add these attributes to OTR mp3 files.

Any ideas?

Thanks !!

Sometimes the file is set up as "read only". To change, go to where ever you have the file stored and click on properties, then on-check "read only". Then click on okay.

Those are ID3 tags - I know that they can be edited in iTunes and other programs.

(I'm on a Mac - maybe a Windows user can chime in and recommend how to do it on a Windows box.)

Yes, that is exactly what I am talking about. I can not edit OTR MP3s such as Burns and Allan ) using iTunes or Windows Media player, but I can easily edit ID3 tags of MP3 that I have ripped to my pc.

Anyone know how to edit these ID3 tags?
